Welcome to the Women and Spirituality community. Here you will find exclusive films, books and blogs by leading filmmakers, scholars, artists, writers and activists in feminist spirituality today. Our Women and Spirituality bloggers include Muslim activist and scholar Amina Wadud, filmmaker Donna Read, eco-activist Starhawk, activists and scholars Charlene Spretnak and Carol P. Christ and artist, writer and life coach Susan Reimer-Torn. From the personal to the political, this space is dedicated to exploring issues related to women and spirituality.

Our first feature release is Donna Read's classic trilogy Women and Spirituality, which explores the power of the sacred feminine in mythological, historical and cultural contexts. Never before available on DVD, it is a stunning and poetic work comprised of three one-hour films: Goddess Remembered, The Burning Times and Full Circle. This multi-award winner is the definitive series on feminine spirituality.

“A top seller when only on VHS, we expect it to be eagerly embraced by a wide new audience as the lead title in our spirituality line,” said Elizabeth Sheldon, VP of acquisitions at Alive Mind. Licensed from the National Film Board of Canada it is scheduled for consumer and educational DVD release direct from Alive Mind in March 2008.
